(Note that I am a tenant of a former client.) The realtor I interacted with, Mary Nigh, displayed a…read morelack of empathy and cannot be trusted to keep her word. Towards the conclusion of the sale, I asked why certain aspects were being handled in the manner they were, seeking to understand what was happening with my rent money and security deposit. Mary's answers were "this is how it is always done". When I pushed her for a better answer, instead of considering that I might be afraid, confused, and looking to feel a little more in control, she snapped that she was "just trying to sell this house" and offered to give my contact information to the buyer's agent. I thanked her, trusting naively she would keep her word. I was deeply upset to learn she decided that she would instead treat me to the full blast of her condescension for the audacity to ask for a more detailed answer to my questions. She talked to the buyer's agent and did not provide me an opportunity to do so. She also omitted to provide the contact information for the buyer of the property prior to the sale, a promise she made before she took a dislike to me. In summary, I would recommend you look elsewhere for a realtor if you want one to display empathy, compassion, or integrity. Mary Nigh does not have these qualities.

I chose the Balossi team to help me purchase my first home based on online reviews. Thank goodness…read morefor online reviews! I didn't work with Barbara directly but Sarah and Naomi and were both really amazing. Naomi was extremely knowledgeable and concise and Sarah was very patient with me while I figured out what wanted. These five stars are mostly for Sarah because she was always readily available and always took the time to explain every little detail of the process. Oh and I almost forgot to mention Betsy. She did an amazing job of making sure that I had all of the documentation I needed. I looked forward to her emails the most because they were always so cheerful and encouraging. I honestly don't think I could've gotten through the process without the Balossi team . I would recommend them to anyone purchasing a home, especially for the first time.

It all started when Karen helped my parents sell their house in less than a day…read more.. I reached out to her to see if she'd be willing to come take a look at our house and help us determine what repairs and upgrades we'd need to do to maximize our sale price while minimizing time on the market. She was happy to help and her advice was spot on. We procrastinated and took our time getting our various projects done (that's how we roll), but Karen didn't pressure us, just checked in every few months to see how we were doing, even offering to come back out for another look whenever we were ready. Did I mention our house was in High Ridge? Anyway, about a year after the first visit, we asked her to come back out. Karen helped us make a few more decisions, and we finally landed on a "we'd like to be on the market by this date" date. Once we made it official, Karen listed our house--the pictures were fantastic--and we accepted an offer just about a week after going live. Karen helped us through the negotiation and inspection process too, recommending some really great (and affordable!) companies to do the work. Meanwhile, as our buyer's agent, Karen was ever-so patient with us as we looked at a bunch of houses, then suddenly revised our budget and looked at some more, then suddenly switched target areas and looked at even more. The absolute best thing was how great she is at identifying potential issues. It was kind of like bringing a home inspector along to every showing! We found "the one", made an offer, haggled a bit and yada yada yada, here we are, a year later, in our perfect house in the perfect area. We just couldn't have done it without Karen's help and expertise. AH-MAZING.

Karen is simply the best! We have sold and bought 2 times with her. She is attentive to the…read moredetails, and is VERY knowledgeable. There were multiple instances of details in the sale and closing that the other party's realtor was missing, and Karen caught them. That saved us time and money, and helped us to avoid headaches. Karen has a wide network of professionals to help you. From handymen to movers, she knows people to get you through the process of preparing your home for sale, listing it and closing the deal. This also applies to you buying your new home. I would recommend Karen to everyone I know!

I found a house to buy fairly quickly with Marisa and the process that can be very stressful was much easier with her help. She provided honest and practical advice and helped with setting up appointments for contractors and inspectors which was extremely helpful. Marisa also worked tirelessly to sell the house I was moving out of and kept in close communication at all times. I would definitely use Marisa again as my buyer and seller agent the next time I move!

Marisa had helped us buy the house that we sold this year. She was great in getting the house…read moreprepped and marketing it. But things started falling apart as soon we got an offer ( before even the open house) . There was a lot of nervousness that she relayed to us and an uncertainty about the price of house ( which was priced based on her recommendation - lower than what we believed the value to be ) . The inspection revealed few issues which is normal for 100 year old house but that led to really no negotiation at all from our side. She scared and bullied us to not negotiating a single ask on the inspection sheet and we signed without getting some estimates launching into an even more rigmarole while trying to fulfill the contract. At one point of time , while questioning the bill of n contractor as well as telling her that we needed to spend time with family and could not meet her , I was told that I am making a drama and she only communicated with one home owner . We had another issue come up that required an amendment which was not agreeable to us and we wanted to negotiate further . But Marisa became very nervous and was literally threatening us that if we did not sign this this buyers will walk away etc. This was one of the most stressful periods in our life and we had to hire a lawyer to help look out for our interests in selling our own house. Marisa did not look out for the interests / needs of the sellers. Yes we sold the house at the asking price but we spent a lot of unnecessary money to make it happen and the process of selling a house we loved became a torture. It is a stressful period for any homeowner and the real estate agent should help us look through all options , understand the impacts and let us make the decisions in a calm way . Any home selling and buying is a negotiation and as an agent she should have understood our needs .
